The beach area was pretty, and the water was very clear and very chilly.

With the Agean as a backdrop, I could not resist some attempts at artistic photos…

Thankfully, NetApp is still paying my salary….

I did find three hand drawn rocks, and I tried to arrange them in an interesting way, sort of as if three buddies were chatting with the sea as a backdrop. Not sure whether I pulled it off…
